My first “large” bowl. I have had my lathe for a few months now and am slowly gaining some confidence. Need to keep practicing. I am not happy with those visible tool marks on the bottom. Constructive criticism is welcome, my goal is to keep improving.
I just got my lathe a few months ago. I have some time off and have been practicing. Here are the latest few pieces.
I just cleaned off my new to me workbench before starting my next project. I inherited this beauty from my father in law a few months ago.
Here is my 5th bowl ever. It has a diameter of about 5” and is 2” tall. Had my lathe for about a month now. Bouncing between bowls and pens while trying to learn a few things along the way.
This is my 4th attempt at a bowl. I am slightly less intimidated by the bowl gouge at this point, but still heavily respect it.
I wanted to focus on a wider flat rim and was successful at that. I also wanted to try something different on the base so I hollowed out the middle.
I am open to feedback on what works and what I should do differently.
